Cometh the hour...

To beat all comers in an exacting league phase of 14 matches, to top the table comfortably, to have perhaps what was the most balanced team with everyone performing, and to run into Adam Gilchrist in such form. Cruel these knock out matches are.
WC 92 SF1 - Martin Crowe - New Zealand - Inzamam...
But if there is ever a big match player, it is this man.WC Final successes in '99 (54 from 36 balls),'03 (57 from 48 balls)and '07 (149 from 104 balls). Who can top that?
It would be churlish to comment now that DD must have used the slower bowlers in the beginning, or maybe made 25 runs more. It did not matter in the end. Chin up viru.Take it out on Australia in the ICC T20.
